Contracor 10130810 [4/36] Warning

CONTRACOR

Version 2.0

1. Objectives, eld of application and

conditions for use

WARNING!

Abrasive blasting helmet CONTRACOR® ASPECT should be connected only

to a compressed air system that delivers breathing air according to the

European norm EN 12021.

When using the helmet in non-EU countries all local norms and laws for the

breathing air supply have to be observed.

The abrasive blasting helmet is used in a working environment where protection of the

respiratory organs, face and head is required against ricocheting medium, particles, mists,

vapours and gases.

The abrasive blasting helmet should be connected via CONTRACOR® Breathing Air Hose to

the compressed air system which supplies breathing air according to EN 12021.

The required airow can be adjusted on the regulator. The integral airow indicator displays

whether sufcient air is passing into the helmet. The disposable glass visor tted against the

helmet window can be removed when polluted or damaged. To remove, open the frame.

1.1. Limitation of usage

• The system is not suitable for working in areas with: intense heat radiation, open res,

risk of explosion or if extremely high concentrations of hazardous matter, causing

immediate health risks, are present.

• If the ambient temperature is below the freezing point, the humidity in the compressed

air circuit can result in icing-up of coupling or regulator, blocking the further supply of

air. In such a case it is necessary to ensure that the humidity content in the compressed

air (at atmospheric pressure) is less then 50 mg/m

, and in accordance with EN 12021.

Standard compressed air circuits do usually not comply with this requirement.

• If applicable, the letter «F» indicates that the helmet and the compressed air supply

hose can be used in the ammability danger zone.
